I wasn't sure what this one was, so it would help if GOG added the "Party Game"/"Co-op" tags. I never had a SNES/N64 growing up, missing out on all the mario party games, so I have no nostalgia for this genre.

However I hope that people have fun with it!

I'm not bonking that.

I really feel like this could be so much more appealing with a slight change to the artstyle. There's just some Je Ne Sais Quoi about it that hits me right in the "putoff" button.

About how many levels does it have?

I was about to say that somebody didnt think the title through well enough.

Whenever GOG tells me a title didn't make it to GOG, because it's too niche, i look at shit like this, and, well, i wonder why i bothered all those times making sure i knew what all was on gog's catalogue. I spent a few days, once, browsing's gog's catalogue. Now every time a new game comes, i look at the screenshots to "give it a chance" so i know what gog has and doesn't has. When i come across stuff like this, i regret that decision.

I'm sure it's absolutely fun, but this is more on the low tier end.One of their advertisement gifs is a high-five. I don't think GOG has a particularly large "7-10" age crowd, and i really don't think this is a particularly good way to attempt to create it, either.

Apparently this was fine for curation, but games from Cave and Taito were not.

Never forget, never forgive.

This doesn't really contain any of the good that made Mario Party good; which in part was offered by chaos and rudeness.

So imagine this. You're on a board where the objective token collectable moves around each time gets one. And one of the items that you can use is one which allows you to go backwards.

Typically the boards are made in loops meant to lead you back to a starting area, but with this item, you can go a different forward. The objective spawns just a few spaces behind you? You've got it now.

Looks funny ^_^

Taito got rejected!? This Taito!? You must be joking. What titles did GOG reject?

Are you serious, Cave got rejected?

who wants to bonk?

Yes. GOG rejected Mushihimesama, Death Smiles and Taito's Dariusburst (And these are just the ones that are known, notice how we never got any games from Degica besides Crimzon Clover). A Degica staff member posted the GOG reply regarding Mushihimesama on the shmup.system11 forum, telling them that the game is too obscure outside of Japan and they don't know if it will sell, following up by saying that if the launch on Steam does well, they may reevaluate.

This was 2013. The game did infact do well. GOG curation is demonstrably, willfully ignorant and pathetic.
